You do realise iBeng that there is something like 800,000 police officers in the USofA. Wouldn't it stand to reason that there would be more than a few isolated incidents of bad behaviour amongst them. The concept of a few rotten apples applied to 800,000 could easily be 8000 (1%), maybe good intentioned types who 'darn goofed' might be 80,000 (10%).
It's hardly surprising then that there is a seemingly endless supply of videos for you to drop in here. Sure things could be better, but it's hardly out of step with the realities of human behaviour.
What proportion of tradies would you expect to act badly? Teachers? Lawyers? Financial Planners? Politicians? Care Workers? Labourers?
If a teacher is acting badly, say, sleeping with students, they get arrested and removed from the profession and become registered sex offenders.
Lawyers become disbarred and lose their license to practice law.
Financial Planners can be done for fraud and lose their licenses but also could be punished more, absolutely.
Politicians often get away with far worse because they are in a higher level of power again.
Care workers regularly get investigated and charged for neglect. Lose their jobs, the right to work, etc.
If a laborer acts badly, IE: KILLS SOMEONE THEY GET ARRESTED FOR MURDER.
The problem is that the POLICE POLICE THE POLICE and the Police Union likes things this way because it makes it easier.
Its no different to the Catholic church moving its pedophile priests and changing their names so they dont have to deal with the consequences.
